Emirates Global Aluminium

Emirates Global Aluminium is a primary aluminium producer based in the United Arab Emirates. The company operates smelters, refineries and a bauxite mine, with its principal production facilities located at Jebel Ali and Al Taweelah in the UAE. It is jointly owned by Mubadala Investment Company of Abu Dhabi and Investment Corporation of Dubai. Emirates Global Aluminium produces aluminium for sale to customers in construction, automotive, packaging and other industrial sectors across global markets. The company is one of the world's largest primary aluminium producers by output, with annual production capacity exceeding two-million tonnes. It supplies aluminium to more than 50 countries and operates an integrated value chain from bauxite mining through to the production of cast metal. Emirates Global Aluminium also invests in technology development and has pursued initiatives to reduce the carbon intensity of its operations, including the use of solar power. The company was formed in 2013 through the merger of Dubai Aluminium and Emirates Aluminium, consolidating the UAE's aluminium smelting capacity under a single entity.
